BACKGROUND ART

Various display apparatuses have been developed, which can reduce a weight and a volume as disadvantages of a cathode ray tube. Such display apparatuses can be implemented by a liquid crystal display (LCD), a field emission display (FED), a plasma display panel (PDP), a quantum dot display (QD), and an electroluminescence display.

A display panel constituting the display apparatus includes a display area in which pixels are arranged to implement an input image, and a non-display area on the outside of the display area. The non-display area may be referred to as a bezel area. The pixels may be defined by an intersection structure of signal lines. The signal lines may include gate lines, data lines, and power lines.

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, the display device according to the present disclosure includes a display panel 100, a data driving circuit, gate drivers 130 and 150, and a timing controller 110.

The display panel 100 includes a first display area AA1 and a second display area AA2. In the first display area AA1 and the second display area AA2, an input image may be implemented. The display panel 100 includes a first substrate 101 and a second substrate 105 bonded to each other.

The first substrate 101 may include a main pixel unit provided to correspond to the first display area AA1 and having main pixels MP, and a gate in panel (GIP) unit 103 provided to correspond to the second display area AA2 and having a gate shift register 130. Each of the main pixels MP may include a main light emitting element, and the main light emitting element may be an organic light emitting diode (OLED).

The main pixel unit 102 may include multiple main data lines MDL and multiple main gate lines MGL which cross each other, and the main pixels MP are arranged in a matrix form in an intersection area to constitute a main pixel (MP) array. Each main pixel MP may include an organic light emitting diode (OLED) a driving thin film transistor (TFT) (MDT), a storage capacitor, and a switching unit MSC having at least one switch TFT. The TFTs may be implemented as a P type, implemented as an N type, or a hybrid type in which the P type and the N type are mixedly used. Further, a semiconductor layer of the TFT may include amorphous silicon, polysilicon, or oxide. Each main pixel MP is connected to a high-potential voltage source and a low-potential voltage source to be supplied with main high-potential power voltage (EVSS) and main low-potential power voltage (MEVDD).

The second substrate 105 may include an auxiliary pixel unit 106 provided to correspond to the second display area AA2 and having a plurality of auxiliary pixels AP. Each of the auxiliary pixels MP may include an auxiliary light emitting element, and the auxiliary light emitting element may be an inorganic light emitting diode (ILED). The organic light emitting diode and the inorganic light emitting diode may be distinguished according to a fluorescent material used for a light emitting layer.

The auxiliary pixel unit 106 may include multiple auxiliary data lines ADL and multiple auxiliary gate lines AGL which cross each other, and the auxiliary pixels AP are arranged in the matrix form in the intersection area to constitute an auxiliary pixel (AP) array. Each auxiliary pixel AP may include the inorganic light emitting diode (ILED) a driving thin film transistor (TFT) (ADT), a storage capacitor, and a switching unit ASC having at least one switch TFT. The TFTs may be implemented as a P type, implemented as an N type, or a hybrid type in which the P type and the N type are mixedly used. Further, a semiconductor layer of the TFT may include amorphous silicon, polysilicon, or oxide. Each auxiliary pixel AP is connected to a high-potential voltage source and a low-potential voltage source to be supplied with auxiliary high-potential power voltage (AEVSS) and auxiliary low-potential power voltage (AEVDD).

A data driving circuit includes multiple source drive ICs 120. The source drive ICs 120 are input with image data (RGB) from the timing controller 110. The source drive ICs 120 generates data voltage by converting the image data (RGB) into gamma compensation voltage in response to a source timing control signal from the timing controller 110, and supplies the data voltage to the main data lines MDL of the main pixel unit 120 and the auxiliary data lines ADL of the auxiliary pixel unit 106 so as to synchronize the data voltage with the gate signals. The source drive ICs 120 may be connected to the pad unit 104 of the first substrate 101 by a chip on glass (COG) process or a tape automated bonding (TAB) process. Pads of the pad unit 104 may be electrically connected to the main data lines MDL of the main pixel unit 102 and the auxiliary data lines ADL of the auxiliary pixel unit 106 through routing lines. The pad unit 104 may be disposed on the outside of the first display area AA1 and the second display area AA2.

The gate drivers 130 and 150 include a level shifter 150 and a gate shift register 130 connected between the timing controller 110 and the gate lines MGL and AGL of the display panel 100.

The level shifter 150 level-shifts a transistor-transistor-logic (TTL) level voltage of clock signals CLKs input from the timing controller 110 to gate high voltage and gate low voltage to switch the TFT formed in the display panel 100. The gate shift register 130 outputs the gate signal to the main gate lines MGL of the main pixel unit 102 and the auxiliary gate lines AGL of the auxiliary pixel unit 106. For example, the gate shift register 130 may apply the gate signal to both the main pixels MP and the auxiliary pixels AP arranged in the same row through the main gate line MGL and the auxiliary gate line AGL corresponding to each other. When differently expressed, the gate shift register 130 may sequentially supply the gate signal in units of the row. Accordingly, the main pixels MP and the auxiliary pixels AP arranged in the same row may be simultaneously applied with the gate signal of the same sequence number.

The gate shift register 130 may be directly formed on the first substrate 101 of the display panel 100 in a gate in panel (GIP) scheme. That is, the gate shift register 130 may be formed at a location corresponding to the second display area AA2 on the first substrate 101.

In the GIP scheme, the level shifter 150 may be mounted on a PCB 140. The gate shift register 130 may be formed on one side of the first substrate 101, and formed on both sides of the first substrate 101 as illustrated. In the case of a large panel in which an RC delay in a gate line is large, the gate shift register 130 is preferably formed on both sides of the first substrate 101. As such, distortion of the gate signal due to the RC delay may be minimized.

The timing controller 110 is input with the image data (RGB) from an external host system through various known interface schemes. The timing controller 110 may correct the image data (RGB), and then transmit the corrected image data to the source drive ICs 120 so as to compensate an electrical characteristic deviation of the pixels based on a sensing result according to real-time sensing.

The timing controller 110 is input with timing signals such as a vertical synchronization signal Vsync, a horizontal synchronization signal Hsync, a data enable signal Data Enable (DE), a main clock MCLK, etc. The timing controller 110 generates a data timing control signal for controlling an operation timing of a data driving circuit and a scan timing control signal for controlling an operation timing of a gate driver based on a timing signal from the host system.

The scan timing control signal includes a start signal VSP and clock signals CLKs.

The data timing control signal includes a source sampling clock (SSC), a source output enable (SOE), etc. The source sampling clock (SSC) is a clock signal for controlling a sampling timing of data within the source drive ICs 120 based on a rising or falling edge. The source output enable signal (SOE) is a signal for controlling an output timing of data voltage.

Referring back to FIG. 3, the gate shift register according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes multiple stages STGn to STGn+3 connected dependently on each other. The stages STGn to STGn+3 may be GIP elements formed in a gate driver in panel (GIP) scheme. At least one upper dummy stage may be further disposed on a front end of an uppermost stage, and at least one lower dummy stage may be further disposed on a rear end of a lowermost stage.

The stages STGn to STGn+3 generate gate signals SCOUT(n) to SCOUT(n+3), and carry signals Cn to Cn+3. The stages STGn to STGn+3 generate the carry signals Cn to Cn+3 independently from the gate signals SCOUT(n) to SCOUT(n+3) to prevent the carry signal from being distorted by a gate signal having a relatively large load. The stages STGn to STGn+3 generate the gate signals SCOUT(n) to SCOUT(n+3) to supply the generated gate signals SCOUT(n) to SCOUT(n+3) to the main gate lines MGL of the main pixel unit 102 and the auxiliary gate lines AGL of the auxiliary pixel unit 106. The stages STGn to STGn+3 generate the carry signals Cn to Cn+3 to supply the generated carry signals Cn to Cn+3 to any one of rear stages as a start signal and supply the generated carry signals Cn to Cn+3 to any one of front stages as a reset signal.

The stages STGn to STGn+3 may be supplied with a global start signal VSP, clock signals CLKs, a global reset signal (not illustrated), etc., from an external timing controller (not illustrated) in order to generate the gate signals SCOUT(n) to SCOUT(n+3) and the carry signals Cn to Cn+3.

The global start signal VSP, the clock signals CLKs, and the global reset signal are signals commonly supplied to the stages STGn to STGn+3. The global start signal VSP may be further supplied to a start terminal of an upper dummy stage, and the global reset signal may be further supplied to a reset terminal of the lower dummy stage.

Each of the stages STGn to STGn+3 activates an operation of node Q according to a front carry signal applied to the start terminal every frame. The front carry signal is a carry signal applied from any one of the front stages. In this case, some of the stages STGn to STGn+3 may be input with the carry signal from the upper dummy stage. The upper dummy stage operates according to the global start signal VSP to supply the carry signal to some of upper stages.

Each of the stages STGn to STGn+3 deactivates the operation of node Q according to a rear carry signal applied to the reset terminal every frame. The rear carry signal is a carry signal applied from any one of the rear stages. In this case, some of the stages STGn to STGn+3 may be input with the carry signal from the lower dummy stage. The lower dummy stage operates according to the global reset signal to supply the carry signal to some of lower stages.

Each of the stages STGn to STGn+3 includes an inverter unit to control a potential of node Qb opposite to node Q. The inverter unit includes at least one transistor pair connected between node Qb and low-potential power voltage in series to increase stability and reliability of the operation.

At least one clock signal CLKs may be supplied to each of the stages STGn to STGn+3. The clock signals CLKs may include scan shift clocks and carry shift clocks in which phases are sequentially shifted. The scan shift clocks are clock signals for generating the gate signals SCOUT(n) to SCOUT(n+3), and the carry shift clocks are clock signals for generating the carry signals Cn to Cn+3. The scan shift clocks are swung between the gate high voltage and the gate low voltage to be synchronized with the gate signals SCOUT(n) to SCOUT(n+3). The carry shift clocks are swung between the gate high voltage and the gate low voltage to be synchronized with the carry signals Cn to Cn+3.

The clock signals CLKs may be overlap-driven in order to secure a sufficient charge time upon high-speed driving. Clocks of neighboring phases according to the overlap driving may be overlapped by a partial predetermined gate high interval.

Each of the stages STGn to STGn+3 may be supplied with power voltage PS from an external power supply unit (not illustrated). The power voltage PS includes high-potential power voltage and low-potential power voltage.

In the present disclosure, since the GIP unit 103 is formed in the second display area AA2, the second display area AA2 is an area allocated to a bezel area in which the input image is not implemented. In the present disclosure, there is an advantage in that since the input image may be implemented by applying the inorganic light emitting diode (ILED) even to the area where the GIP unit 103, a display area may be maximized and the bezel area is minimized to improve an image immersion sense of the user.

In the figure, a case where the auxiliary pixel unit AP is applied only to both sides of the display panel 100 corresponding to the GIP unit 103 is illustrated as an example, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and as necessary, the auxiliary pixel unit AP may be selectively applied to upper/lower/left/right sides of the display panel 100.

FIG. 13 is a diagram illustrating an application example of a display device according to the present disclosure.

A display device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may be used as a relatively small display device such as a TV, a monitor, and various personal portable digital devices, and also used as a relatively large display device such as a public display and a digital signage.

The large display device may be generally disposed outdoors and used as for a usage for providing information to multiple users. Accordingly, the large display device needs to be implemented in a large area so as for users to easily view the information provided from the display device even at a remote distance.

However, in spite of the development of manufacturing technology, an area of the display device which can be manufactured by using one base substrate is limited at present. That is, when the display panel constituting the large display device is manufactured by using one base substrate, it is difficult to ensure a yield of a predetermined level or higher.

In order to solve the above-described problem, proposed is a method for implementing a large-area display device by combining a plurality of display panels having a largest area which can be manufactured by current stable technology is combined. For example, four display panels 100 provided as illustrated in FIG. 13 are arranged on a horizontal surface in line, and neighboring display panels 100 are mutually fixed to implement the large di splay device. The display device implemented by such a method may be referred to as a tiling display device.

In the case of a conventional tiling display device, since a plurality of divided display panels 100 has a mutually combined form, a seam is present among the neighboring display panels 100. Since the seam corresponds to a bezel area in which the image is not implemented, a sense of alienation and/or a sense of difference are/is given to a user who views the tiling display device, thereby remarkably decreasing an image immersion sense.

Unlike this, since the display panel 100 according to the present disclosure can remarkably reduce the bezel area, an awareness level of the seam may be remarkably reduced in the case of the tiling display device adopting the display panel 100. Accordingly, the tiling display device adopting the display panel 100 of the present disclosure has an advantage of being capable of providing superior visual information and maximizing the immersion of the user.

Certain embodiments or other embodiments of the invention described above are not mutually exclusive or distinct from each other. Any or all elements of the embodiments of the invention described above may be combined or combined with each other in configuration or function.

For example, a configuration “A” described in one embodiment of the invention and the drawings and a configuration “B” described in another embodiment of the invention and the drawings may be combined with each other. Namely, although the combination between the configurations is not directly described, the combination is possible except in the case where it is described that the combination is impossible.
